Speaking at the Iowa state fair on Saturday, Wasserman-Schultz sought to tout Rep. Bruce Braley (D-Iowa), who has been dropping in the polls, and portray Ernst as extreme.

“I know that this state is know for its wind energy, for corn, for soybeans, but that woman is an onion of crazy,” she said. “Every time you peel back a layer, you find something more disturbing about her views.”

She pointed to Ernst’s suggestion in January that President Obama should face “removal from office or impeachment,” a comment that Ernst has sought to walk back.

Wasserman-Schultz then called out Ernst’s May comment that “I do have reason to believe there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq,” which Ernst has also walked back.

Well, true, the Dems are far from perfect, but compared to the Repubs, they're saints. You won't see me playing the Both Sides™ game, not as long as the Repubs remain batshit insane, because I know that both sides are definitely not the same.

Cheezus Effing Christ how can one make a leap that big and still remain in the studio? And That Boehner, you wanna talk about disrepect bordering on treason. I for one will be glad when the president is done with this last term. Oh!! Then we'll for next 400 years how whomever the current president is is still trying to fix what Obama did.

He needs to be hit with the most hard time what he did is treason, and a little fine and no jail time is bullshit.If I would had done it when I was in the sevice I would be in jail for years and treated as a traitor.Look at the guy that had to fled to Russia to keep from serveing a lot of time in jail.
